Could be a loose ribbon cable to the display itself but you'll need to pull the display out to find that.
Have a look on Xoutpost to see if anyone has managed a repair in the US - they usually seem to try things earlier over there.....
Not seen anyone on here refer to a UK repairer (yet) but there may be someone doing them.

Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

Did mine myself - but replaced the screen with a salvaged one. Have a look at thisthread.
You need to get the unit out and take it apart.

Mine went funny all be it a washed out colour and it was literally just the ribbon cable. Took it out, reseated it and it was fine after that. It's worth the DIY first off.
